The Boeing Company Airplanes AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: We are adopting a new airworthiness directive
(AD)for certain The Boeing Company Model MD-11 and MD-11F airplanes. This AD was prompted by a report that the rub strips attached to the horizontal stabilizer front spar access door location were manufactured improperly using anodized aluminum. This AD requires replacing the anodized rub strips with new alodined rub strips to prevent inadequate electrical bonding between the rub strips and the fuel access door, which can contribute to possible ignition of flammable fuel vapor in the tail fuel tank as a result of a lightning strike. We are issuing this AD to correct the unsafe condition on these products. DATES: This AD is effective January 17, 2012. The Director of the Federal Register approved the incorporation by reference of a certain publication listed in the AD as of January 17, 2012.

(562)627-5210; email: *philip.kush@faa.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Discussion We issued a notice of proposed rulemaking
(NPRM)to amend 14 CFR part 39 to include an AD that would apply to the specified products. That NPRM was published in the **Federal Register** on June 30, 2011 (76 FR 38332). That NPRM proposed to require replacing the anodized rub strips of the tail fuel tank access door with new alodined rub strips. Revisions to AD Language In the NPRM (76 FR 38332, June 30, 2011) we specified that this AD was prompted by a report that the rub strips of the tail fuel tank access door were manufactured improperly. We are revising the statement to more accurately reflect the location of the rub strips. We have revised the summary section and paragraph
(e)of this AD accordingly. Also, to more accurately describe the rub strips, we have revised paragraph
(g)of this AD to state, “replace the anodized rub strips with new alodined rub strips.” Comments We gave the public the opportunity to participate in developing this AD. The following presents the comment received on the proposal and the FAA's response to the comment. Request To Revise Part Number UPS requested that Boeing revise the part number of the alodined rub strip specified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin MD11-55-027, dated March 17, 2011. UPS stated that the existing anodized rub strip has the same part number as the new alodined rub strip, and this may cause confusion for the operators. UPS stated that changing the part number of the new alodined rub strip would prevent an anodized rub strip from being installed instead of the required alodined rub strip. We disagree with the commenter's request to revise the part number of the alodined rub strip. Boeing has verified that prior to issuance of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin MD11-55-027, dated March 17, 2011, two alodined rub strips have been sold to the MD-11 operators. The rub strips are not part of the access door. They are riveted to the horizontal stabilizer front spar web and are not re-installable after drilling out rivets during replacement. Since only alodined rub strips are available and since the anodized rub strips are destroyed during removal, reinstalling anodized rub strips is not possible. We have determined that the only airplanes with anodized rub strips are the airplanes listed in the Applicability section of this AD. No change has been made to the AD in this regard. Conclusion We reviewed the relevant data, considered the comment received, and determined that air safety and the public interest require adopting the AD as proposed. Costs of Compliance We estimate that this AD affects 120 airplanes of U.S. registry. We estimate the following costs to comply with this AD: Estimated Costs Action Labor cost Parts cost Cost per product Cost on U.S. operators Replace rub strips 32 work-hours × $85 per hour = $2,720 $0 $2,720 $326,400 According to the manufacturer, some of the costs of this AD may be covered under warranty, thereby reducing the cost impact on affected individuals. We do not control warranty coverage for affected individuals. As a result, we have included all costs in our cost estimate. Authority for This Rulemaking Title 49 of the United States Code specifies the FAA's authority to issue rules on aviation safety. Subtitle I, section 106, describes the authority of the FAA Administrator. Subtitle VII: Aviation Programs, describes in more detail the scope of the Agency's authority. We are issuing this rulemaking under the authority described in Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart III, Section 44701: “General requirements.” Under that section, Congress charges the FAA with promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This regulation is within the scope of that authority because it addresses an unsafe condition that is likely to exist or develop on products identified in this rulemaking action. Regulatory Findings This AD will not have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132. This AD will not have a substantial direct effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government. *For the reasons discussed above, I certify that this AD:*
(1)Is not a “significant regulatory action” under Executive Order 12866,
(2)Is not a “significant rule” under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034, February 26, 1979),
(3)Will not affect intrastate aviation in Alaska, and
(4)Will not have a significant economic impact, positive or negative, on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 39 Air transportation, Aircraft, Aviation safety, Incorporation by reference, Safety.
